Chapter 6: Tour Beginnings
The day of the tour launch finally arrived, and excitement crackled in the air like electricity. Y/N stood in front of the mirror in her hotel room, adjusting her outfit for the first event—a pop-up dinner featuring the dishes they had created together. She had never been part of something so high-profile, and the anticipation was almost overwhelming.
As she finished her look, her phone buzzed with a text from Dua: Can you meet me downstairs? The car is waiting!
With a quick nod to her reflection, Y/N grabbed her bag and headed out. The hotel lobby was buzzing with activity, staff bustling around and fans eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of Dua.
When Y/N spotted Dua, she couldn’t help but smile. Dressed in a chic ensemble that perfectly blended comfort and style, Dua exuded an effortless charisma that made heads turn. As soon as Dua saw her, she waved excitedly.
“Hey! You look amazing!” Dua exclaimed, rushing over to pull Y/N into a warm hug.
“Thanks! So do you,” Y/N replied, feeling the warmth of Dua’s enthusiasm wash over her. “Are you ready for this?”
“More than ready! I’ve been waiting for this moment for weeks,” Dua said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Let’s make it unforgettable!”
They climbed into the waiting car, the atmosphere inside buzzing with nervous energy. “I can’t believe this is happening. Just think—tonight, people will be tasting our food!” Y/N said, her heart racing.
“I know! It’s going to be incredible. And I’m so glad you’re here to share it with me,” Dua replied, her sincerity cutting through the excitement.
As they drove to the venue, they went over the plan for the evening. Y/N had designed a menu that reflected Dua’s music and style, while Dua was set to perform a few acoustic songs in between courses.
When they arrived, Y/N was struck by the buzz of the venue. The lights were bright, and the décor was elegant, adorned with fresh flowers and twinkling fairy lights. A stage was set at the front, and the kitchen was bustling with activity.
“Let’s do this!” Dua said, determination gleaming in her eyes as she grabbed Y/N’s hand and led her inside.
Y/N felt a flutter of nerves as they walked through the crowd, but Dua’s presence grounded her. They made their way to the kitchen, where Y/N’s team awaited, ready to execute the evening’s carefully crafted dishes.
“Okay, everyone! This is Y/N, my brilliant chef for the tour. Let’s show them what we can do!” Dua announced, her voice clear and confident.
The team cheered, and Y/N felt a swell of pride. “Thanks, everyone! Let’s get to work and make this night a success!”
As the evening progressed, Y/N and her team worked seamlessly, plating dishes that dazzled the eyes and delighted the taste buds. The sound of applause filled the air every time Dua stepped on stage to perform, her voice a captivating melody that wove through the restaurant.
During one of the breaks, Y/N stepped out to catch her breath, leaning against the cool wall of the venue’s patio. She couldn’t help but smile, feeling a rush of exhilaration. Just then, she heard footsteps behind her.
“Enjoying the view?” Dua asked, stepping out with a glass of sparkling water in hand.
“It’s incredible! I can’t believe how well everything is going,” Y/N replied, her cheeks flushing with pride.
Dua took a sip of her drink, her eyes sparkling. “I knew it would be special, but this is beyond anything I imagined. Your dishes are a hit!”
“I’m just happy to be a part of this,” Y/N said, her heart swelling at the compliment.
